I am the ONLY attorney in my family. My family is made up of police officers, teachers, restaurant workers and truckers. I know what it’s like to work in a service-oriented industry because it’s how I have grown up. Therefore, these hard-working individuals are the types of clients I want to help “take control” of their lives when legal issues arise.. My first legal supervisor taught me that “there’s no better way to know how to build a case, than if you first learned how to break that case down.” So, I spent much of my earlier legal career working for insurance companies and defense firms in order to learn how to do just that – “how to break a case down.” Now, I want to use that knowledge to help my clients “take control” of their lives when times seem most out of control. Here’s exactly how I intend on doing that:. 1)      Information. When you are involved in a car accident, slip/trip and fall accident, dog bite incident or work-related accident and medical bills are piling up and life seems out of control, I will be here to provide you with the information about your legal options to help you make decisions and “take control”. Your only job during this time should be to focus on your treatment and getting better. I can help with the rest.. 2)      Honesty. Since I have experience “breaking cases down,” I will give you all the positives and negatives about your case because information is KEY to making good decisions. I don’t sugarcoat things. I have had clients with extremely difficult cases thank me for my honesty because they always knew what to expect.. 3)      Flexible Time. I can and do, meet clients at night or on weekends. Moreover, my clients have my cell number and email address. They can reach me by phone, email or text whenever they need me or have a question.. 4)      Empathy and Understanding. I have seen, firsthand, the devastating effects an injury can have on a person and his/her family. Physically, emotionally and financially, a person may never be the same as he/she was pre-injury. However, I will give you the tools and information you need to make the best choices for you and your family. I will NEVER recommend that you do something just to increase the value of your case. My goal is to help you, my client, and a case that is low in value means that you are healthy, which is all that truly matters.. You, the client, have choices. You have options. Therefore, shop around for the right attorney for you. But, if you are ready to “take control,” I hope you give me a call.
